Usage

• One player should aggro the enemies making sure the ritualist heroes do not aggro.
• Once aggro'd, heroes will automatically use spirits
• Call/attack target
• ???
• Profit!

Counters

• Spirits getting killed

Notes

• Pretty much impossible to die, especially if you have Save Yourselves.
• It's recommended that you have at least one offensive human.
• "Save Yourselves!" and Vampirism are very useful as are additional hexes/conditions.
• As long as you call the target, the spirits should attack it, and the necromancers should use their conditions/hexes and spam Discord.
• If facing heavy AoE, flag ritualist heroes back so they don't get hit. AoE shouldn't be a problem if you can properly pull the mob.
